Description
We present direct numerical simulations of buoyant convection over a rough heated plate placed in a Rayleigh Bénard cell. The roughness is introduced by a set of cubic obstacles regularly spaced, modelled by using an immersed boundary method. This study aims at clarifying interactions between the large scale circulation filling the box, plume emission and the enhancement of the heat transfer. The simulations are performed in a box-shaped cell at fixed Prandtl number (
